I'd go with Kuuga. It's a bit older than W and it only has one Rider, but it's a great show.

I have MG Figurerise Skull and plan on getting Accel and Double, but I also want the SICs. (Or the Figuarts if they weren't so hard to find and expensive)

Hm...I would say OOO then Fourze. If you want something more lighthearted...go Den-O. I finished it earlier this month, and it was amazing. You could also go with Wizard since you don't have a whole lot of catching up to do.

Figuarts aren't that expensive. They are reissuing CycloneJoker, though BBTS still hasn't gotten it in.

I'm glad to see you're liking it!
I would recommend OOO, but to not overwhelm you with 4 or 5 different series suggestions, I'll also recommend Kuuga.

OOO is a really great beginners series. Lots of interesting characters, a really powerful hero, can't go wrong with OOO.

I already know a bit about OOO from the war core movie. I'm not sure if that's really my thing, but I may check it out. I'm not a fan of his design, though, so maybe that's where my hesitation comes from.

Oh dude, please DO NOT base your opinion of OOO on Core War. Even if it's positive. That movie is the most abysmal rider movie ever assembled. The crew that made that film wasn't the one that actually worked on OOO. They were just using rough outlines of the show when they wrote the OOO portion so it's crazy messed up. Watch the series itself and you will enjoy yourself very much

And OOO's design grows on you, either though just loving one form to just liking the suit more.

What's so wrong with Core War? I thought the bits with Skull were nifty.

The OOO portion was written completely differently than how the rest of the series was, leading to an odd focus on a ballerina who has no bearing to the show (Hell, she wasn't really important to the movie).
Basically, fans of the series felt that the OOO portion could've been a lot better.

It really does. Still not much a fan of TaToBa, but I absolutely LOVE TaJaDoru.
